MAIN-STREET HOTEL.
Meeting and List Of the s"o-
scribcrs.

SCf1bcrss
A large number of the subscribers
for stock in the hotel to be erected on
the corner of Main and Tenth streets
met, last night, in the hall attached
to Engine House No. 2, on Ninth
street. DR.. M. Hagan in the chair.
w. d. Stephenson, Chairman OF the
Committee on Organization, pre-
sented articles of incorporation, but
he stated that the Committee did not
recommend that the incorporation be
effected until the full amount desired
$500. .OOO-had been subscribed.
Colonel Rowland said that about
$4OO, 900 had been subscribed, but
$500 900 was needed before incorpor.
ating. 1t was very foolish to think OF
incorporating without the full amount,
and he had a plan to recommend
which he thought would aid in secur-
ing the $1OO, 900 still lacking. There
we're a number of large property own
ers in the vicinity whose property
would be greatly benentted by the
OullQlnS Oh tue lioooi, "hU
stead OF taking stock in 1t and
encouraging it they were holding back
and waiting to see if the hotel would
not be built without their aid. He IN
sisted that they should be made to
show their hands. Heretofore the
matter of obtaining subscriptions had
not been systematically arranged, but
had been done by individual efforts.
Now it was necessary to insist that
the property owners on Main between
Ninth and First streets should give as
sistance, and he suggested that Il COM
mittee of five be appointed by the
chair at some time in the near future
to see the property owners on the line
of Main street. He, therefore, moved
that such action be taken.
Amended so that the committee be
made to number six, including the
chairman. Carried.
Secretary Owen reported that the
subscriptions amounted to $396, 800,
with some lists not in.
The list OF subscribers at present is

A San Francisco gentleman related
to us one of the modes they resorted
to in San Francisco to boom values in
South San Francisco, in the sand-hills
near the ocean. A wel-known jour
nalist, owner Of one OF the leading
dailies, went to friend and showed
him the deed for block which he
said he had just bought for 1000.
"What do you think Of the invest
ment?" said the journalist to his

Nothing but intrinsic merit can account
for the enormous sales of Frese's Hamburg
Tea, the demand for which is constantly in
creasing. The reason is obvious to all. 1t is

Six Men Blswn to Pieces by .
Boiler Explosion at Wilson's
Saw Will, Near Prescott.

At an early hour this morning our quiet
community was thrown into feverish ex-
citement by the news brought to town by
George Heisler, the only survivor OF the
awful calamity, that w. Y. Wilson's saw
mill, situated about nine miles from Pres
colt, on Lynx creek, had been blown up
by the boiler exploding, and everybody
connected with the mill killed. Mr..
Heisler said he owed lis escape to the
fact that he was STOPPING down oiling .
pulley and the flying wreck passed over
his head.
Every available conveyance in Prescott
was pressed into service TO convey anx-
ious and sorrow-stricken crowds to the
scene Of the disaster.
The following are the names of the
dead: w. u. Wilson, John Akers, Chas.
+. Collins, Andy steinbrook, Thomas
Cowley and &. B. Taylor.
The details Of the fearful catastrophe
are horrifying and sickening in the OK.
treme. W. Y. Wilson, popularity known
as Ieb Wilson, an old pioneer of this
section, was mutilated beyond recogni-
tion. The body Of Collins wac found
fully 200 feet from where the mill stood,
and the other four unfortunate victims
were thrown TO considerable distance.
All Of the bodies were terribly disfgured,
but all except Wilson were recognizable.
Different theories have been advanced
as to the cause Of the accident, the most
generally excepted being that q hot fire
was made under the boiler and that the
pumps failed to work to supply the neccs-
sary amount OF water, and during the
absence Of the men az breakfast q great
degree Of heat had been reached, which
Immediately after their return resulted In
the fatal EXPLOSION. The men who so
fearfully lost their lives were popularity
known and respected in this community,
and the terrible disaster has cast sad
gloom over the entire neighborbood.
Judge McGrew has summoned a cor
oner's jury to meet this evening, to de-
termine, so far as possible, the cause Of
the edisaster.--Journal-sIiner, Nov. 10th.

A Male Up a Tree.

A mule during the great food in April,
1885, in Autauga county, Ala, ioated
with the tide and lodged in the branches
of an oak tree near the Mcneil Smith
When the waters went down
the mule was left lodged in the tree. The
bones and skin, dried out by the wind
and sunshine, are there yet, and at a
still look exactly like a live mule

Send or Tell Us the News.

II there is any thing a man wants in
preference TO the amount due him on
account, it is news Of interest. Men who
have such news and could give it without
any Inconvenience, usually bubble most
II 1t does not appear in the local papers,
and perhaps they are the only ones who
knew OF 1t and would not impart it,
Many cases Of this exact kind are in
our knowledge. Men who rush around,
work hard, discover promising mine or
do some other thing likely to benefit a
whole community, think their efforts
worth public recognition. On general
principles they are, and We are always
glad to print them, but, in nearly every
instance OF the kind, no report is made to
the editor or any one connected with him.
We have spent hours to trace up with
some degree Of accuracy a report of ap-
parent value for publication, when the
man who knew all about 1t passed us or
our office more than once and did not tell
his story. This applies to nearly all
business men, many OF whom always act
as If they deemed inquiries more or less
imprudent. Under the best circum.
stances 1t is very difficult task to make
complete local paper. and utterly i'm
possible without much information from
the people among whom it is published.
We want to note progress in mining dis
coveries, development and products,
quantities OF gold dust and silver or other
bullion produced and bought or shipped
away; condition of crops and yield Of
them; number and kinds OF domestic
animals brought into the Territory and
particularly this section, by whom, cost
and condition; additions to population by
births or immigration; marriages and
deaths; Of new buildings and projected
ones, etc. These are all matters mainly
OF a private character. There are no
public records Of them, as OF official pro-
ceedings of public affairs. II the indi-
viduals who know the facts connected
with them will not report the same, it
will often happen that no publication will
be made, or but impehectly IL at all. 1t
il well enough to now and then remind
the people that if they would have com
plete local paper they have n duty to
perform as we'll as the editor.--Citizen.

ARIZONA.
How IL was Made and Who Made 1t

The Devil was given permission one day
To select him land for his own special sway
So he hunted around for a month or more,
And fused and funied aud terribly swore:
But At last was delighted a country TO view.
Where the prickley pear and mesquite grew;
With q survey brief, without further excuse,
He stood on the banks Of the Santa Cruz.
lie saw there was some improvement to make.
For he felt hfs own reputation at stake.
An idea struck him; and he swore by his horns
To make q complete vegetation ot thorns.
He studded the land with prickIey pear
And scattered the cactus everywhere. .sa
The Spanish dagger. sharp pointed aud tall,
And at last the cholla. to outstick them all n
lie imported the Apaches direct from hell,
The size Of his sweet,scentcd ranks to swell:
And legion Of skunkS. with loud, ioud smell
10 perfume the country he loved 90 we'll
And then for his life he could not see why
The river should any mere water supply;
Aud he swore II he gave 1t another drop
You might have his head and horns for q MOP
He filled the river with sand till It was alrnos,
dry,
And poisoned the land with aIkali:
And promised himself on its Shiny brink
The control OF all who from II should drink.
He "a. there was one improvement TO make
He imported the scorpion, tsrsntula and rattle
snake,
That all " no might come TO this country TO dwell
Would be sure TO think II wassalmost hell.
He fixed the hea. at one hundred and eleven
And bauished forever the moisture from
Heaven,
And remarked as he heard his furnace roar
That the heat might reach FIVE hundred or more !;
And after he fixed things so thorny aud well,
He said, I'm be d--d II this don't BEAT hell"
Then he Topped his wings aud away he flew.
And vanished from.earth in blaze OF blue.
And now, no doubt, I'm some corner Of hell
He gloaik DER the work he has done 70 we'll,
And VOWS that Arizona cannot be beat
For scorpions, taraatulas, snakes aud heat;
For with his own plsHs II is filed so well,
He feels assured 1t surpssses he'll.

One Of our leading army engineers has
brought before the engineer classes Of late
monster magnet made of two Rodman
guns connected at the breech. Around
the magnet thus formed is wound twenty
miles Of submarine cable. For instance,
bar OF railroad iron thirty feet long, il
placed in the open cannon's mouth, can
not be drawn out by as many men as can
graspit. Another instance OF the strength
Of this big magnet was illustrated with a
35o-pound cannon ball. The shot was
placed in the mouth Of the cannon on the
negative side. On reversing the electri-
cal current ii fell from it's position, but
was attracted to the opposite cannon and
clung to its side. The positive current
was then reversed alternately with the
negative and the heavy cannon ball
played between the two cannon like
rock between the poles Of a toy magnet
